Hi Seshu,
 
Moving the configuration to the Alarms page makes sense.  A couple
questions though.  
 
Firstly, we should in general avoid terms like "Enable" in the label of
boolean settings.  The checkbox already implies that the setting is used
to Enable/Disable (or On/Off, or Yes/No) some behaviour.  (I know the
Alarms page already does this, but read on.)
 
Will the existing "Enable alarms notifications" setting affect whether
or not alarm are sent of SNMP?  Probably not, in which case you should
change that setting's label to make this clear.  I suggest simply "Send
Alarms to enabled Notification Groups".
 
Secondly, will the feature ever send INFORMs?  If so, then definitely
avoid including "trap" in the label of the new setting.  But it should
include "SNMP", perhaps "Send Alarms via SNMP"?
For the download link can you use "Download sipXecs MIBs"?  Also, please
make sure this label uses the product name variable, since we will want
it to use "SCS" in the Nortel OAM release.
 
Thanks.

        Subject: [sipX-dev] Regarding feature XX-6870
        
        
        Hi all,
         
        This is regarding feature
http://track.sipfoundry.org/browse/XX-6870
         
        The initial plan was to configure community strings in
general(like BCM) to sipX snmp agent as mentioned in Fig-3 & 4 in the
following link(feature xx-6870).
        http://sipx-wiki.calivia.com/index.php/SNMP_Traps_Feature
         
        Fig-3 & 4 become redundant at this point as Fig-5 is taking care
of the community string configuration which is used by the sipX snmp
agent to send traps to the snmp manager.
         
        As we are supporting just snmp version V2 at this point we are
only left with:
        1.One field to configure(Enable SNMP Agent, Fig-2). 
        2.One link to download (Download SipXecs MIB's ,Fig-2)
         
        Thought of removing the separate web page for snmp & moving
above 2 items to Alarm's page as shown in the screenshot
'snmp_config_in_alarm_page.JPG'
        http://track.sipfoundry.org/browse/XX-6870
         
        Currently 'Enable alarm notifications' checkbox in Alarms web
page enables/disables both sms & email & having Alarm Trap Notification
enable/disable too 
        will have better usability.
         
        Please suggest if its fine to move to Alarm's page.
         
         
         
        Thanks & Regards, 
        Seshu
